Lucas Gourna-Douath, the young French midfielder who arrived in January from Salzburg, has quickly won Roma’s trust. Although the initial deal called for a loan with right of redemption, the obligation to buy clause will not be activated because the player has not reached the required 50 percent of minutes played.
However, writes today’s edition of Corriere dello Sport, his convincing performances especially against Inter and Fiorentina have prompted the Giallorossi management to consider a loan extension for another year. The goal is to rediscuss the economic conditions, lowering the redemption amount currently set at around 20 million euros.
Coach Claudio Ranieri sees Gourna-Douath as a key element for the future of the Roma midfield, and the player himself has expressed a desire to remain in the capital. Loan renewal negotiations are ongoing, with hopes of finding a mutually beneficial deal.
